Finding Great Design in Unlikely Places

March 16th, 2009

The US Department of Agriculture, while certainly very important, is not something I would consider to be a source of great design, but low and behold, their signage in the White Mountains of New Hampshire is spectacular! Good balance, colors, and an awesome shape that evokes the mountains ahead of you.

This is great inspiration for me for an upcoming design project. I didn’t have my camera with me as I was zooming past the signs, so here are two Flickr photos for your viewing pleasure.

From the Attic

February 24th, 2009

In my slow migration from Magnolia to Delicious, I’ve dug up some links I’d completely forgot about. Kind of like finding neat stuff in your attic. Here’s some of my old treasures. Hope you enjoy.

Colorblind Web page filter
A great way to test your site for potential problem areas with color contrast and color use with important page elements. Something I quite often forget to be diligent with. Plus, it’s just kind of cool to see your work this way. Makes you stop and think.
 
ASCII Art Made easy
How retro. Convert an image to ASCII art. Your milage may vary, but this is just neato. I really should make something with this for an email signature. 
 
Five Second Test
I first ran into this one at An Event Apart in Chicago. Test what people really see on your Web site in five seconds. That’s it. 

Innerfade with JQuery
A really elegant way to quickly do image fades with JQuery, with pretty good markup to boot.
